I wonder how that happen. Of course I agree, its one of my favorite songs of all time. But people often chose November Rain, Civil War, PC in those kind of lists...

There were some great songs on that list. Not to totally hijack, but that picture of a younger Bowie really looked like Josh Todd.  |

some great... some are overrated.  : ok:yeah... i'd pick estranged over November Rain anyday. Estranged is much more diverse and expirament. NR is your standard rock ballad... just over 7 mins long. |

Finally! "Estranged" gets some belated but much needed love. I would have also included "Coma."

estranged is an awesome song.
I like November Rain too though... though I think I like the ending alot better than anything else in the song...
Coma probably would have been my choice too though, that's a crazy song. :]

I'd actually throw "Breakdown" into the ring while we're at it. I'd put that above "November Rain" as well. I mean no disservice to NR, but "Breakdown" is one of my all-time favorite GN'R songs. And it just makes the cut.

Suprised that ESTRANGED made it and not Nov. Rain. Many of the songs on the list are drawn out and would have been better as 4-5 min. songs, ie Purple Rain, thats what makes GN'R so great.As long as the songs are they do not become repetetive.

Breakdown is simply beautiful. Axl's lyrics are sheer poetry! |

Good to finaly see Estranged getting a bit of credit.
i do agree however there are a few other GNR songs that could have been on the list, Coma is the obvious, breakdown would have been good to see.
Also, that list had a few other decent songs on it (a change for RS)
